Allahabad High Court grants bail to man accused of selling sugarcane juice mixed with beef

The Allahabad High Court has granted bail to one Fuzail, who has been accused of selling sugarcane juice adulterated with beef.

A single-judge bench of Justice Deepak Verma passed this order while hearing a Criminal Misc bail Application filed by Fuzail.

The bail application has been filed with a prayer to release the applicant on bail in Case under Sections 323, 504, 295-A I.P.C. and Section 3, 5 of U.P Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act, 1955, Police Station Prem Nagar, District Bareilly during pendency of the trial.

It is alleged in the FIR that the applicant was involved in selling sugarcane juice, adulterated with beef.

The counsel for the applicant submitted that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the case due to ulterior motives. Applicant is engaged in selling sugarcane juice. The dispute arose between the parties regarding payment of money and the informant implicated the applicant in the case on a concocted story. Informant lodged the FIR against the applicant.

There is no FSL report of the alleged incident, which may prove the prosecution story, hence, no offence under the alleged sections is made out. The applicant has been languishing in jail since 30.11.2022. In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail and co-operate in trial.

Additional Government Advocate has opposed the bail prayer of the applicant.

“Considering the entire facts and circumstances of the case, submissions of the counsel for the parties and keeping in view the nature of offence, evidence, complicity of accused and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case and the law laid down by the Apex Court in Satendra Kumar Antil Vs C.B.I & Another, S.L.P(Crl) No 5191 of 2021, the Court is of the view that the applicant has made out a case for bail,” the Court observed while allowing the bail application.

The Court ordered let applicant, Fuzail, who is involved in the aforesaid case crime, be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned subject to following conditions. Further, before issuing the release order, the sureties are verified.

1. The applicant shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence by intimidating/ pressurizing the witnesses, during the investigation or trial.

2. The applicant shall cooperate in the trial sincerely without seeking any adjournment.

3. The applicant shall not indulge in any criminal activity or commission of any crime after being released on bail.

In case of breach of any of the above conditions, it shall be a ground for cancellation of bail.
